Time Calculation in Minutes only ?
pgcam Wrote: Had this same problem some time ago, found a solution & as is the way with these things have lost it ! Can anyone help me with this 'simple' calculation : I have a 3 column spreadsheet : (A)Start Time (B)End Time (C)Difference Both columns (A) & (B) are expressed in hours:minutes. I need column C to only express the difference in minutes, for Example if the difference is 01:23, I wish to see 83 (minutes). Well, I'm almost there. Using =hour(cell ref * 60) converts the hours to minutes ok & in a seperate cell =minute (cell ref) gives me the minutes then in a 3rd cell add the 2 together. However I would like to have a single cell/calculation that achieves the same job (saves on wasted columns !!). Maybe its just my use of parentheses, but I can't get it to work. Peter..... -- pgcam |
